Waymo does extensive mapping/scanning of the service areas.

The "correct" approach in many cases is to leave it be as filling requires the removal of healthy parts of the tooth.

Another factor in that case was that the government regulated, in some cases, the ratings of bonds that entities were allowed to buy (they couldn't be as highly levered with lower rated bonds) and so there was an incentive for bond ratings to be falsely inflated, happily carried out by the rating agencies. Of course collateralized junk is still junk, and many people at the time knew that, but there was money to be made in looking the other way.

I love them. I suppose it's personal preference

This would be incredibly hard to test because you'd have to have the results of the study and then wait a few decades to see who ends up identifying as transgender. Also the amount of transgender people is a small fraction of the population so you'd need a larger total sample size for the same statistical significance.

If Amazon doesn't want to offer agent-first shopping I'm sure someone else will come along and eat their lunch. Adapt or die.

The watermark is in the text. If you copy the text you're copying the watermark which is part of the text.

Computerphile on YT has a video explaining how models can fingerprint the text they produce. Essentially they modify the probabilities of word choice slightly in a predictable way.

How terrifying that a bit of nature may be near a person! Better cover it with roundup so they don't have to suffer the horror of seeing a spider

3% is typical for a HYSA (Ally, for example)

1.75 is less than the money is losing value from inflation. If that savings is in USD it's quite a bit less than inflation over the past five years.

Actually the high income households are becoming a greater and greater share of spending, referred to as the "K shaped" economy. For example, the top quintile of households accounts for about 40% of all consumer spending.

It won't let you use the same letters in the same order again (e.g. LEASE -> LEASED). I think that's fair.
